Ibarat Buaya Buntung

The above traditional dance format emerged from Central Jawa near the borders with Tjirebon. The dance is called sintren or lais.

When I was in KLin the early seventies, I observed that there were not many cultural expositions from the various ethnic groups. This may in fact partly due to the citizens relying and borrowing heavily from western cultures especially Great Britain its former colonial master. In a way I can understand this phenomenon as the Brits were definitely more accomodating in Malaya, than the Dutch in Indonesia.

Well that is all past now as both colonies and conolizers have put the past behind them and noved on to a greater common good for humanity.

It is a cloudy Wednesday morning and looks like it is going to shower. The crazy fella in the white house/or black house whichever is more applicable is now a raving lunatic waving and pointing at all and sundry who dare to defy him. Well as sure as the sun will rise, the days of his kingdom is coming to an end....as did the prediction in.....Mene Mene Tekel Ufarsin, many centuries ago. People in general are fed up with his raving lunacy. He is a strong candidate for the cuckoo's nest. He meets all the necessary requirements.

It is a hot thursday afternoon. Hardly any cars on the roads. People are still not quite confident to venture out of their house. The virus has hit the world on a ginormous scale.
